1076 Take a Look at My Son
Xu Xiang’s screams of pain very quickly attracted the attention of the people in the house, but no one moved and everyone acted like they did not hear her. They all just went about their own business. Only Tan Yue frowned slightly and seemed sympathetic.
All her brothers had the habit of hitting women. Even her father, Tan Bo, beat up Jiang Yi in his younger days. Tan Yue had witnessed all these incidents, but she could not and did not dare to do anything. If she went forward to stop them, they would beat her up as well. They did not care who they beat up during the process.
Tan Jing went out to go to the toilet. When she passed by the woodshed, she took a look inside. Xu Xiang already looked as if she was on her last breath. If this continued, she would very likely be beaten to death by Tan Hu.
“Cough, cough.” Tan Jing coughed lightly twice before walking away rapidly. Tan Hu’s hands stopped moving and the mad glint in his eyes gradually disappeared.
Tan Hu took a deep breath and threw away the piece of firewood in his hand. He said, “Pfft! I feel disgusted even when I hit you. I wanted to discuss it with you nicely but you have to make me do this. Anyway, I’m just informing you about this matter. In a while, I’ll go and ask Tan Jing about adopting Tan Xue. You won’t be able to change this fact even if you die.”
!!With that, Tan Hu left the woodshed without looking back and went into the house to look for Tan Jing. He must speak to her about this matter as soon as possible. Otherwise, once the other child was here, Tan Xue would no longer stand a chance.
Xu Xiang lay on the ground in pain and could not speak. Tears flowed down from the corners of her eyes silently. All she could do now was to pray that Tan Jing would not accept Tan Xue.
“Eldest sister, come out with me for a while. I have something to tell you,” Tan Hu said fawningly as he stood beside Tan Jing.
Tan Jing looked at Tan Hu in puzzlement. Tan Hu had never addressed her as eldest sister before. He already considered himself to be respectful if he called her by her full name. It was as odd as the sun rising from the west.
“What’s the matter? Can’t we talk here?” Tan Jing asked.
“Here…” Tan Hu looked around and whispered to Tan Jing, “There are too many people and it’s not convenient. Eldest sister, just come out with me to say a few words. It’ll only take five to six minutes.”
She knew that Tan Hu would not dare to hit her as he knew that the Xia family would help her if he did that. At most, he would just threaten her, which was not a big deal. Therefore, Tan Jing was not worried about going outside with Tan Hu.
When they reached the door, Tan Huo just looked at Tan Jing and wondered how to tell her about his idea. After all, he had found out about her desire to adopt a child only because he eavesdropped on her conversation. Now that he was asking someone for help, he must behave appropriately.
“Are you going to say anything or not? If not, I’m leaving,” Tan Jing said impatiently.
“I am! I am! It’s… I heard that you’re looking to adopt a child from the Tan family?” Tan Hu asked tentatively.
“Yes, there is indeed such a thing,” Tan Jing admitted openly.
Tan Hu said happily, “What do you think of my Tan Xue?”
Tan Jing was a little shocked. She had never considered Tan Xue. Putting aside the child’s character, there was only one boy in their branch of the Tan family. Her third brother, Tan Bao, had a daughter and her fourth brother was not married yet. If she took Tan Xue away, Jiang Yi would kill her!
“He’s your only child. Are you willing to give him to me just like that? Aren’t you afraid that Mom will scold you?” Tan Jing asked.
“I’m not afraid. He’s my son and I can do whatever I want. There’s no problem. Eldest sister, you should consider my Tan Xue. My son is really very obedient and sensible. He’s definitely better than any of those relatives’ children!” Tan Hu said.
If she rejected Tan Hu right now, they would definitely get into an argument. It was easier to push the issue to Xia Wen. Tan Hu probably would not dare to go straight to Xia Wen to offer the child to him.
“Alright, I’ll ask my brother-in-law about it in the future,” Tan Hu said.
The Xia family still had not sent anyone to look for Tan Jing by evening time. They did not even call the house to check if she was there. Feeling in low spirits, Tan Jing looked out of the window at the brightly lit houses outside.
Even in a wolf’s den like the Tan family, there were so many couples. Tan Hu and Xu Xiang, Tan Bao and Wang Meng, and Tan Yue and Zhou Nan were all in pairs. Even though life was tough, each couple went through the hardships together.
